Yes, according to the following equation:
CrO4-2 + H+ ----> Cr2O7-2 + H2O
This can be noted when the colour changes from yellow to orange
Fe2(Cr2O7)3
Chromic acid is the acid in chromic acid. The chemical formula is H2CrO3 (Not correct)Added & Corrected:Often the species are assigned the formulas H2CrO4 (dihydrogen chromate) and H2Cr2O7 (dihydrogen dichromate).The anhydride of these "chromic acids" is chromium trioxide, also called chromium(VI) oxide (2CrO3=Cr2O6).Regardless of its exact formula, chromic acid features chromium in an oxidation state of +6 (or VI), the highest known.
react it with dichromate in acidic medium. It will oxidize a primary alcohol all the way to a carboxylic acid.
H2Cr207 is also known as chromic acid.
Potassium Dichromate (VI) can be acidified with sulphuric acid AND hydrochloric acid! Note that another common oxidising agent ' Acidified Potassium Manganate (VII)' is sometimes used although this one can only be acidified with sulphuric acid not hydrochloric as the Manganate (VII) oxodises the Cl- ion instead!
Silver Chromate Ag=Silver CrO4= Chromate(a polyatomic ion)
(Cr2O7)2- + H2O -> CrO4- + 2H+ Chromate is yellow and Dichromate is orange. If the solution is yellow, then by LeChatlier's Principle, if an acid is added, then the Dichromate will form predominately.

This is a mixture of 2K+ and Cr2O72- ions in strong sulfuric acid, made from potassium chromate.2CrO4- + 2H+ ----> Cr2O72- + H2Ochromate-yellow -> dichromate-orangeNote:Potassium ions do NOT react, they are tribune-ions

Take 20g of Potassium Dichromate powder and make a paste using small volume of water. To this add 300ml of concentrated Sulphuric acid with lot of care. Your Chromic Acid is ready. Use only Glass appartus for preparation and storage of chromic acid. Use rubber gloves while handling chromate and acid.
